Cookie & Browser Storage Policy

A clear explanation of analytics consent, browser storage, and preference controls.

Last reviewed: 27 October 2026 Plain-language notice

This Cookie & Browser Storage Policy explains the small amount of information that may be stored on your device when you use abhinavranjan.qzz.io. It should be read together with the Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions.

Current choice: Google Analytics is optional. On pages using the privacy controls, the Analytics tag is not loaded unless you select Accept analytics. You can reject it or change your choice using Cookie settings in the site footer.

1. What the site uses

  • Consent preference: the site stores your analytics choice in browser local storage under a site-specific preference key so the banner does not reappear on every page. This is browser storage, not a cookie. It remains until you clear site data or change the choice.
  • Session storage: selected features may temporarily use session storage for short-lived interface state and contact-form anti-abuse tokens. Session storage is normally cleared when the browser tab/session ends.
  • Service-worker cache: the progressive web app may cache static site assets so pages can load faster or show an offline fallback. This cache is not used to identify you.
  • Optional analytics cookies: if you accept analytics, Google Analytics 4 may set cookies such as _ga and _ga_* to measure aggregate site usage. Google controls some details of those technologies; see Google's explanation of cookies.

2. How to accept, reject, or change your choice

When the privacy banner appears, select Accept analytics or Reject analytics. No analytics tag is loaded by the site's consent script unless you accept. Select Cookie settings in the footer to reopen your choice later. If you reject after previously accepting, the site sends an analytics-consent update where possible and attempts to remove Google Analytics cookies for this site; any request already sent cannot be recalled.

You can also clear site data or disable cookies/storage in your browser settings. Blocking storage may cause the choice banner to reappear and may affect optional site features.

3. Third-party services

Analytics is provided by Google only after consent through this site's consent controls. If you follow an external link or choose to send a message through WhatsApp, Telegram, your email application, or another third-party service, that service may use its own cookies and technologies under its own policy. This site cannot control third-party storage after you leave it.

4. No advertising consent in this control

This site's analytics control is not an advertising-personalisation control. It does not grant consent for advertising cookies or personalised advertising. If an optional advertising technology is introduced later, this notice and the consent interface should be reviewed before it is enabled.

5. Changes and questions

We may update this policy when technologies or site features change. The revision date above identifies the most recent review. For privacy or cookie questions, contact legal@abhinavranjan.qzz.io or use the contact page.
